BEN WAID - BE LIKE WATER Like water, Ben Waid becomes formless and shapeless on this impressive self- produced project. Waid is able to effortless glide on every track no matter the style. With a natural yet, futuristic voice, Ben Waid coasts through each track baring his soul with dazzling appeal and jaw dropping skill. Each beat has a oceanic, watery vibe that has influences from reggae, rock, and other genres which Ben melded together to match his tone and style. What a combination! Ben sounds comfortable. Like water, his approach goes from calm and beautiful to intense and powerful. An amazing product that makes us speculate if his talent is coming from the water he's drinking in San Marcos or pure talent. Either way, a great project that'll keep our thirst quenched until the next release.

BABY GUWOP - TEXAS BLUES EP Talk about prolific. It's only been two months and @BabyGuwop512 is back with a new project. Titled Texas Blues and opening with a quote from the 2001 film 'Blow' starring Johnny Depp, Guwop is making it a point to give us an edge-of-your-seat adventure with Texas as the back drop.

The opening quote in 'Sick of Home' is haunting and reflective. Guwop croons over tough, yet right decisions with a sure and confident attitude. Giving up vices, tightening his circle, leavig everything he knew...Baby Guwop is on the verge of something and is putting himself on the path to find it. The stand out moments from track one to track eight is the obvious improvement in his vocal range and fearless experimetation with his new bouncy flow. We've had an early taste of what the EP would sound like with the previous releases of 'Ice Wrist Makes You Sick,' and 'Million Ways.' From the bass alone in 'Million Ways,' we knew shit was going to get crazy, but the whole tape showcases how insane @scpjcksn's production game has gotten. Once again, these two are raising the bar for how collaborations should go. The artwork of the project is sporting a single flower - a blue bonnet - which looks as if the project is now a travel guide for future residents and tourists. Smart move if this tape is lowkey just that. Now everyone knows if they're looking to throw bands up in Houston, they can hit up Guwop for a good time.

Ah Trees, Bodies There's something in the air and the heads of global communications sense it. It's something that causes extended celebrity gossip segments on the news and overly glorified sporting events to be aired on every television set. It is apparent there is something happening that is bigger than all of us. And the government is trying to interfere. Meanwhile, Ah Trees - the international sensation who's sweet guitars and hard hitting drums lull listeners into a trance. The listeners of Ah Trees music reach a state of mind where their only will to survive is be in close contact with thearray of groovy an funky sounds while their entire surroundings becomes a non-existent haze. The subject of interferences has been revealed. It's a life force from out of this world and this force is indeed a threat. As a last resort, the government broadcasts an emergency message via television and radio to prepare the citizens of Earth. Unfortunately there is a Ah Trees concert, that graspes the complete attention of these humans, hypnotizing them and migrating them in masses through oceans and deserts. After days of travel, they reach their destination. The music stops. And the beautiful clouds that hovered above open, shooting out blue lights that pull the Ah Trees enthusiatists into the sky.
